The Benefits of Wire Cages in a Warehouse Setting

March 16, 2018

Wire cages are a great way to secure valuable products or protect important infrastructure in your facility.

Safety and security are two priorities that need to be considered carefully when designing or upgrading a warehouse. Depending on your specific processes, you may need to protect your product from forklift collision damage. And if you’re producing certain products, such as valuable electronics or pharmaceuticals, your storage capabilities will also need to be highly secure to protect against theft. Wire cages are a great, versatile safety and security solution that can be built to suit your unique needs. Here are some of the benefits of wire cages in warehouses.

Built to Last

The warehouse setting can be very tough on equipment, so you need to make sure anything you use there is built to last. Wire cages are constructed with ten-gauge wire, arranged into two-inch squares, for superior durability in the toughest warehouse environments. Once welded into the frame, a finish is applied to the wire to provide additional wear and tear protection.

Easy to Install

Wire cages are very similar to modular offices in that they do not require permanent installation. If your needs change and you need to expand your caging or move it to a new location, it is very easy to do so. There is no cutting, drilling, or welding required for installation!

Versatile

Wire cages, at a fundamental level, consist of the mesh part and the frame part. These parts do have standardized specifications, but they can be customized according to your unique needs. The mesh portion of the caging can be woven together in different ways for more strength or to match other aspects of your warehouse construction. And if you need gates, posts, special doors and locks, or other panels, these can be installed as well for additional utility.
